I bought this spreader 4 years ago to replace an older metal hopper spreader that lasted 5 years before it rusted through. This poly hopper is more durable than metal when using to spread materials like fertilizer. It is much quieter, too. Although it lasted only as long as the metal hopper, I will continue to use this poly type because of quietness, durability of hopper, and color/scratch/dent attributes over metal hopper. These units are used for my lawn care business, and so quietness and appearance are important. Either metal unit or poly still rusts out, because of steel frame and non-stainless steel pan and fins. — OuterVisions Landscape from OH
